This is not true.
Weed will kill you eventually. It's the same as tobacco, and will destroy your lungs.
Yes, there are other ways of using it, but they're not popular and not the reality.
Most people who smoke weed also smoke tobacco, and thus I imagine the cancer they die from is blamed on the tobacco. Even if you smoke weed without tobacco, you will eventually become sick.
Smoke is a free radical; it causes cancer.
Common sense is not prevailing on this thread. I'm done.
I just urge others, especially young ones, just stay in school and don't go out at night. Don't go and party and get wasted. It might seem fun at the time, but you'll regret that stupid stuff. Don't listen to these people trying to legalize things like this; they're seeking a personal agenda, and do not have the interests of everyone as a whole in mind.
